This feature gives your customers the option of keying in a Tip amount on the terminal during the processing of a debit and credit Purchase transaction rather than leaving cash or writing the Tip amount on a Pre-Authorization receipt. The Tip Entry prompt can be enabled to appear only for debit Purchase transactions or for all debit and credit Purchase transactions. It is generally used in service-based industries.
To enable Tip Entry (i.e., prompting)...
To set a preset Tip Percentage...
CREDIT or DEBIT
Tip Entry during Purchase when preset Tip Percentage is greater than zero.
Tip Entry during Purchase when preset Tip Percentage is set to zero.
Even if enabled, the cardholder's Tip Entry prompt will not appear during:
MOTO Purchase transactions because the cardholder is presumed not to be present for these types of transactions and, therefore, cannot key in a Tip amount.

Pre-Auth Advice transactions
